For supercharged or turbo
applications where nitrous
is not an option, NX offers
another alternative. Tne
"N-tercooler". Using either
nitrous or CO2, this unit can
reduce air inlet temperatures
dramatically. In a recent dyno
test a turbocharged Honda
equipped with an NX
"N-tercooler", increased its
baseline by an astonishing 52
HP! If it makes horsepower
it must be Nitrous Express!
How does injecting CO2 cool it down?

Tom, the effects of using CO2 sprayed on the "Intercooler" of a "Turbo" setup is a dramatic decrease in the temperature of the air being passed thru the intercooler. Have you ever discharged a CO2 canister from a pellet gun? It gets REALLY COLD!!!
*Plus, using CO2 to cool the intercooler IS A LOT cheaper than using NOS for the same purpose http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

The oval portion of the unit attaches directly in front of the front mount intercooler and spays the CO2 or whatever directly onto the intercooler.

I wonder how this thing works. It almost looks like you attach it you your intake tube shell to cool it, or maybe put it inside the intake tube to cool it?
Hmmm.
